I had a fairly simple .nc file that I ran successfully a couple weeks ago. Today, when i load it, the Z axis is inverted. What could I possibly have done to cause this?  Running LinuxCNC 2.9.2.  I haven't changed any of my .ini or config files. could I have received some update automatically that flipped my Z axis?

Hard to know with such limited info, so:
-does jogging the axis work properly or is it inverted also?
-does the nc file contain negative values for Z axis?
-does the machine have homing switch on Z axis?

jogging the axis works fine. The machine has a homing switch on the Z axis at the top of its motion range. the .nc file is attached for reference.

No file.
And the ini is not set properly for a mill, the Z=0 must be the top point on the machine and everything below must be negative value, or in your case it should be Z min -5.
Despite that, it can work as is if you use the touch off.
And the above "must" is what is normally used, not written in stone.
